Watching From Far Away.
|
I can see a BB with walking frames and commode chairs. People with dementia who meet new housemates everyday.
Just Kidding.... The younger people just seem more stupid and are easier to manipulate. |

Oh I dont think my missus would issue me a day pass to play away even with someone as nice as Chuff. Mind you stranger things have happened at sea and I have never met chuff so never say never. If Deana goes this week i might take a run down to Donny and buy her a glass of bubbly though, who knows. Anyway whats wrtong with a bit of experience in there, these kids know jack sh.t when it comes to fun, look at them for christ sake.

Great post.... However for viewing value I think they got a great set of housemates. To me Adam LukeA Lauren and Deana provided level headed HM's...then Lydia and Benedict, Chris, Shievonne Arron and Luke S gave us a bit of arrogance,vanity and cockiness...Sara and Scott gave us the fence sitters and non commital. playsafe characters....then Becky Caroline Conor and Ashleigh provided us with lifes nasty, spiteful bitches. As for Victoria...we never got the chance.
Its a shame that the game cannot be left alone without the 'cheating' that takes away the concept of the game like you say. Face to face voting was a farce...friends and family was equally a farce. As for giving half the prize money to someone who was never going to get in the final...let alone win has completely destroyed the game. I love BB but stick to the original gameplay. Be stricter and more creative with the tasks...there have been some good ones over the years. Dont mess with it anymore. |

I don't think any of the people they put in there were inherently horrible people and I don't think that's what the producers aimed for, I'd say it's more about the BB environment bringing out the worst in the housemates and allowing nom talk at the start was a big mistake, it set the tone for the bitching and backstabbing for the rest of the series

Is that maybe a reference to my skin Violet cause you are so badly wrong girl. I am a professional golfer, bmi of 19, walk over 50 miles a week and jog 15. An avid outdoor activist and I could crush a walnut between the cheeks of my ass. I have My own good head of hair and all my own teeth minus a few molars and Ive just survived cancer of the intestines and just last year the colon. My avatar is me and I certainly am no wrinkly.
Now on the other hand my missus loes me and there were 2 good reasons for us getting married, the first was becasue she had great taste in men and the second was she deserved the best. |

The OP was so lucid and articulate and so darned all round interesting - but still out they come - thinking there is something of relevance to add, whether they can be bothered to get out the thesaurus or not (sorry to be a bit of a pedant - it is just that I think that language still really matters - or that it should ... ) |

I agree, aswell, with the OP.
I searched for almost 6 weeks to find a favorite this season, and it wasn't among the insiders. I haven't mentally been able to watch since the whole white room/Connor fest started, and once he won the money I gave up on this season and started watching the US version. Sad but true. I hope they make some reverse decisions for next season and give the public what they want. Real people, no nom talk, live feed, no outside phone calls or letters or voting ... etc.

Well to be quite honest, I'd rather have Caroline, Arron, Lydia or Benedict win this series than any of the dullards left in the house right now.
Don't get me wrong, I've been on the Outsiders Side for the majority of the show. But I'm one of these fans that like ENTERTAINING PEOPLE to win the show. Not someone who's 'nice'. This is what happened in BB9 and it ruined a great series. Anyway, BB13's easily been one of the best series ever.

Good well constructed post, I think perhaps one of the reasons why this series of BB has failed to press all the buttons is because the Producers allowed HM to talk about nominations and this in turn led to the level of gossiping/bitching going through the roof. I think it ultimately had an adverse effect on the quality of the show as large parts of the HM's characters were never allowed to develop. Only the strongest Bitchiest ones were on shown in the nightly HL. This is why groups developed (strength in numbers) and we ended up with the Insiders v Outsiders. And of course not having any LF we effectively were only shown 60 mins a night of bickering HM's...good entertainment.. well yes it was good in parts, but a lot of the HM's never got to show their full character and due to the nominations being agreed between HM, a lot of potentially good charaters were evicted before they ever really had a chance.
So, next series lets keep nominations in the DR where they belong....... |

Great post OP. Agree with it all, next series I want more grounded people, like Deana, Luke A and Benedict etc. from this year, with a couple of HMs like Lydia in to mix it up.

The only problem with having a houseful of nice people is it becomes a bloody snoozefest. We can watch songs of praise anytime but bb offers controvosy and conflict, the bread and butter of reality tv. I think that the right people are in there this year without a doubt, it is just that the muppets controling them have lost control and respect plus the tasks are crap which is no wonder looking at the dork in charge of them.

I am use to twists on the American BB.
However this season on bbuk didn't feel like they were twists, it felt like I was being screwed with. It felt like it made things really unfair. |

I think that we underestimate the fact that they walked in the door to nominations. That played a huge part in starting people sceming before they even knew each other. It made the game a battle in housemates minds, and not a "getting to know you" show.
Also in the UK they always refer to them as housemates, where in the US they are called 'players' 70% of the time. Also most of their tasks are called competitions. Dont make them competitive players, please BB. I hate it. |
